Yishay RojasJune 12, 2015Have been in both the main&smaller venues and have enjoyed both shows. 1) tribute to Elvis. 2) aerobic play which I liked the best. Seats are comfortable. Just make sure you're in the assigned one.Upvote4Downvote
Actor J. R. PetersenFebruary 10, 2014A beautiful brand new performing arts center. If you like being able to see the performer's faces - get Orchestra tickets and avoid boxes. THEY DO NOT RENT BINOCULARS! A must 4 balcony or box seats!

If you pay the 3 dollars extra for a souvenir sippy cup (which you are allowed to bring into the theater) you can totally fill it up with some free water from the water fountains during intermission .Upvote5DownvoteUpvoted 2 weeks ago
Scott HegyesNovember 14, 2022This beautiful theater is decked out in deco style decore. Check out Myron’s for an intimate cabaret setting for music venues.Upvote2Downvote
Victoria BabunDecember 15, 2015This place was built to last with a lot of thought behind it, and with lots of attention to detail. If you turned these lights upside down, they'd look exactly like the intake towers at Hoover Dam.

The Art Deco feel inside is spot on. The winged sculpture leading up to the top floors is called Genius In Flight.

Paige D.August 13, 2014The building is beautiful. The shows that come are almost twice as much as anywhere else, and the box office will NOT work with you if you need to cancel/rebook a show. Try again DTLV.UpvoteDownvote
Absolutely gorgeous fine arts venue. When you come for a show, buy a logo'd plastic glass with your drink; bring it with you on future visits for cheaper refills!Upvote2Downvote
